What the hack this script does?

The main idea of upgrading ALSA with attached script, is the timeshift of updates through official channels in the range of up to half a year.
This is IMO not acceptable.
There is a great chance that you get your soundcard up and running or problems resolved much earlier, if you use the very lastest ALSA version. The script will get you the latest official stable ALSA release and - if available - the latest release candidate for an upcoming release.
The released or rc tarballs are way too old for debugging. Use the snapshot tarball in the URL below (not from alsa-oroject.org). ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/snapshot/alsa-driver-snapshot.tar.gz

I don' think this will be enough. If you look at lspci, there is not a single mention of HDMI device. I believe (well, at least MCP78S has it that way) that HDMI device should be listed. If it isn't listed for discrete graphics, then there is some other way that it must be implemented.
I believe that ATI also lists separate device for HDMI audio.
To be precise, my 8200 board has this: http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/10de/0774, and there is a BIOS option to enable and disable it.
If there isn't a way to get HDMI audio device listed in lspci (BIOS option or whatever), I don't believe upgrading ALSA will do much here.
